After Built the following apk(s), cmd shows you the path to apk like

D:\Projects*****\platforms\android\app\build\outputs\apk\debug\app-debug.apk for cordova android 7+

for lower version of android, it’s like

D:\Projects*****\platforms\android\build\outputs\apk\android-debug.apk

As you have used ionic cordova build --release

Hi@h4t4k4
If you want debug build try this

ionic cordova build android --prod

or for release build

ionic cordova build android --prod

Check the location inside
Your Project-->Platforms-->android--->build---->outputs--->apk
Otherwise add platform before taking build

ionic cordova platform add android

h4t4k4 · April 6, 2018, 9:05am

h4t4k4 · April 6, 2018, 9:07am

there is no “Build” folder after execute ionic cordova build android --prod. is there anything wrong?

vibinflogesoft · April 6, 2018, 9:10am

@h4t4k4 I think the issue is with your platform added.If you are added platform already,
remove it and add again

ionic cordova platform remove android
ionic cordova platform add android
